Oak & Metal Badger Gates, Badger Fencing & Badger Sett Exclusions

Oak Badger Gates   Metal Badger Gates

We provide some of the best badger gates available, to consultancies, developers and landowners all over the UK, and try to keep sufficient stocks to cope with the inevitable last-minute orders during the badger sett exclusion licensing season. However many badger gates you require, whether it is just one badger gate for a stock-proof or rabbit-proof fence, or to keep your dogs from escaping through holes made by badgers in your fence, or 20 badger gates for a large badger sett exclusion, we aim to supply the best badger gates available, at short notice, and at a reasonable price. Please e-mail us with your requirements or for further details.
Made from oak, our standard wooden badger gates exceed the specifications suggested by Defra, and provide a reliable means of allowing badgers to pass through fences, while effectively blocking the passage of rabbits, deer, and other unwanted wildlife.
This avoids the problem of badgers digging under fences and allowing other wildlife or pets through, as badgers will always try to continue to use their paths, even when they are blocked.
Our oak badger gate frames are constructed from 50 x 50 mm (2" x 2") rough-sawn green oak, fastened with zinc-plated screws. The badger gate itself is a solid piece of 200 x 250 x 45mm (8" x 10" x 1.5") rough-sawn oak, swinging freely from zinc-plated hinge-pin screws which pass through the frame. The badger gate frame has pointed 'feet' for easy positioning in the ground. Usage instructions available here.

We also supply oak badger gates for excluding badgers from their setts (can only be done under licence, as disturbing a badger sett is an offence under the Protection of Badgers Act 1992). Usage instructions available here.

Our new metal badger gates are available painted or galvanised, and can be used as fence gates or as exclusion gates. They are excellent quality, at a reasonable price, and are available for sale or hire. They can be supplied as an 8" x 10" vertical flap, like our oak badger gates, or as a 10" x 8" horizontal flap, or as a larger 12" x 15" vertical flap, all at the same price. The beauty of the metal gates is that they will last a very long time, are very strong, and will never warp (a problem for any wooden gate in certain conditions).

Quantity discounts are available, and we can modify our badger gate design to suit your requirements.
E-mail us with your requirements, and we'll quote you a price.

* Please note that some warping of the timber of our badger gates may occur under certain conditions, although with our new seasoned oak flap badger gates this is much less likely, enabling our badger exclusion gates to be re-used many times. We have supplied hundreds of these gates, both for exclusions and for installation in fences, and have only had 3 problems so far - we've had one hinge pin (screw) fail, one door flap needed to be replaced, and one complaint that the gates were rough-sawn and not planed!! We would point out that sometimes the gate flaps are a bit curved, but this should not affect their operation - if it does, we'll send you a replacement flap. We aim to please, so if you have any problems, let us know.
All measurements are approximate.
